To everyone that commented, THANK YOU. I didn't realize that I had gotten the ages mixed up, so I did go back and change them. Sorry it took me so long to update, cause life just happens. Enjoy and remember to tell me stuff.

I sat in the waiting room tapping my foot impatiently. They had taken him up to surgery hours ago. What could be taking them so long?

Zach came up and tried to hand me coffee, but I pushed the boiling drink away. I could tell he felt bad for me. I didn't need his pity, I needed my brother to be okay.

Dad came back from the front desk and ran his hand through his hair, flopping down utterly defeated. He had chewed out a nurse. Pestering her with questions on why it was taking them so long to bring us any information.

The uncomfortable chairs had probably bruised my butt by this point so I stood up and started pacing. "Tell me what happened."

Zach looked surprised. I hadn't said a word to him since we had arrived in the waiting room. "I don't know Cam. One minute he was running toward me, the next a car came flying out of nowhere." Zach said something else under his breath.

"What?"

At this my dad looked up too. 'Come on Zach, just tell us."

"Later, he said he'd come."

So we sat like that for another few hours. Let me tell you that it wasn't like in shows where the people in front of you just pass by in a blur. No, it was as if every waking second another little piece of me was dying slowly.

"Why was Jonas even here? Shouldn't he be at school?"

Dad sighed. "He said he had something to tell us. He really wanted to surprise you Camster."

My phone rang and I glanced down. Madame Dab. 'I'll be right back."

I stood up and walked to through the door and out to the parking lot. Zach's eyes followed me worriedly. He should know by now that I was a big girl. I could take care of myself, right?

"Hello?" I picked up the phone.

"Cameron?"

"Yeah, Madame. Hey, I'm kind of busy. Would you-"

"Ahh yes, I had this feeling that something was going on with you."

I sighed. 'Can I please call you back later?"

"Oh yes, I just wanted to let you know that you should come by soon so we can figure out your hours."

"Of course. Bye."

"And whatever it is Cameron, you'll be fine."

The line went dead.

I walked back inside, fingering my phone. When I glanced up I saw that a doctor was talking to Zach and Dad.

I sprinted toward them as the man in the blue scrubs nodded to them and then to me before walking away. "What? Is he okay?"

Zach gave me a small smile. "Jonas is going to be fine."

I sighed with relief. "Oh thank gosh."

At that moment Grant came running up toward us. "How come no one told me what happened. I had to hear it from Macey who heard it from Dillion who heard it from someone else who saw it happen!" He exclaimed breathlessly.

"Jonas got hit by a car. He's fine though." Dad told him. "Something about removing his spleen."

Grant pursed his lips. "When can we see him?"

Dad motioned towards the doors. "I just have to fill out some paperwork, but you guys can go ahead."

We nodded and went to ask a nurse what room number Jonas was in.

As we walked back through the stark white hallways I turned to Zach. 'You said that the person who hit Jonas would come. Who actually hit him."

Zach glanced down at his watch. "I tell you later. Let's just see your brother."

I was a little taken aback by Zach's response. He was usually very forward and open. "Okay then."

Grant was first in the room. "Hey big brother."

Jonas looked up. His eyes were tired. His face was very pale and his left arm was heavily bandaged and in a sling. His light brown hair was matted against his forehead. "Hey guys."

We sat down in more super uncomfortable chairs and pulled up next to the hospital bed. "How are you feeling?" I asked.

"Like I got hit by a car." We laughed. "Which, by the way, would be expected."

Zach went to the bathroom leaving Jonas, grant, and me alone in the room. Jonas's face fell.

"What?" Grant asked.

"Do you guys know what happened."

We looked at him, confused. "You got hit by a car," I said.

He sighed. 'I know, I'm not stupid. But do you guys know why I'm here?"

"No," I replied. 'Zach said you were here to tell us something. What was it?"

He shook his head. "I'll tell you guys when everybody gets back."

We sat in silence for a while before Zach got back. He was closely followed by my dad who talked to Jonas and explained what had taken him so long. "Does Nicky know?" I asked.

My dad looked at us guiltily. "Well I didn't want to worry him-"

We groaned. "He'll have our heads for this."

We talked for the next few minutes. "So, who was in the car that hit him?"

Zach quickly glanced at Jonas. 'He said he was-"

Before he could finish his sentence, someone else rushed into the room.

I Took a sharp intake of breath.

Josh.
